A bit nervous
Turks are annoyingly keen on their customs. Have you ever heard something about "ramadan drummers"? It's a Turkish tradition dating back to Ottoman time. They play drums to wake people up for sahur time when they eat meals as they are going to be fasting during the day.
It's totally redundant. Who needs to hear the drum to wake up in this century? Besides there are people who are not fasting, they might not like their sleep to be interrupted by a terrifying noise in the middle of the night.
I wouldn't mind but I do. They drive me crazy.

Özeliştirini saygıyla karşılarım fakat bir milletin geleneği sadece tek kişiye ait değildir. Bu şekilde kendi milletimizin geleneğine ait genel eleştiriler yabancı bir ortamda yanlış şekilde değerlendirilebilir.

@Anarcotorous, Though sometimes we need to sleep at the day time, Back to seda, I agree that customs are note the best way to live. However, there is always a nicer way to talk and express. Customs deserve only the respect.
It's not the first time I saw from you such way of talking, "Smokers" was a bit shoking. I doubt you ever read Quran, Because I've never read such thing" The purpose from Ramadan is to empathize with the poor", Where did you come up with this idea. Because all what I know, is that "Ramadan is a duty on every Major, physically able Muslime, where the CHARITY is a duty on every wealthy muslim" End of the story.
Though you seem to miss some point, people pray and fast not because they are the cleverest neither the stupidest, but because they have GOOD INTENTIONS. That's why such things deserve respect. Huh, I guess that "Ramadan drummers"
should wear Nirvana Shirt, and make some Rock Band. That way they would have served the best your country Turkey. And in order to be more civilized. http://www.italki.com/notebook/entry/220561.htm, you people might learn a bit from her nice attitude."Turks are annoyingly keen on their customs", poor Turkey.
Best of luck Seda.
